ubiquity advanced options OK greyed out

[Bob Jonkman]

Binary package hint: ubiquity

The OK button on Advanced Options is greyed out, even when I uncheck the box for "Install Boot Loader" (ie. I cannot deselect "Install Boot Loader"). The OK button becomes active when I select certain devices or partitions, but not for all. Workaround: Select a partition for which the OK button becomes active, then deselect "Install Boot Loader".

It is not possible to select the new, unformatted partition (/dev/sdb12) on which I am performing the install, but I can select /dev/sdb (but I don't want to overwrite my existing boot loader, I want to chain to the new bootloader).

This applies to Maverick Meerkat, Ubuntu 10.10 Alpha 3

A similar but was reported for Ubuntu 9.04 in #342325 but that bug has status "Fix Released"

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. There have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time you reported the bug and your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates. It would help us a lot if you could test it on a currently supported Ubuntu version. When you test it and it is still an issue, kindly upload the updated logs by running only once:
apport-collect 626071

and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.
